SUMMARY:Experimental Evaluation of Xanadu X8 Photonic Quantum Computer: Er
 ror Measurement, Characterization, and Implications
DESCRIPTION:Aditya Ranjan (Northeastern University); Tirthak Patel (Rice U
 niversity); and Harshitta Gandhi, Daniel Silver, William Cutler, and Deves
 h Tiwari (Northeastern University)\n\nAmong the various types of quantum c
 omputers, photonic quantum computers have shown great potential due to the
 ir high degree of scalability. However, the development of photonic quantu
 m computers is still in its infancy, and the characterization of their per
 formance is of critical importance to guide further improvements. In this 
 work, we present the first characterization and insights derived from Xana
 du's X8 photonic quantum computer. Our work represents an important step t
 oward the development of practical and scalable photonic quantum computers
